A Different World

Artist’s Description

This is an enlargement of a watercolor painting that is part of the artist’s “Commuters” series. After moving to the metropolitan area, Mihaela became fascinated with how frenetic public transportation can get and decided to capture these moments in her paintings. The idea of traveling together in a tight space, seeing different faces with different emotions, and paying attention to unseen details made her explore this ‘world’—one that seems suspended in time and embedded in a chaotic routine.
